Amazon says it spotted PHP2Shell exploitation before public disclosure

Original: Amazon identifies Oct 17 PHP2Shell exploitation prior to public disclosure

Amazon's threat intelligence team, using its MadPot honeypot system, says it detected exploitation attempts of a PHP vulnerability dubbed PHP2Shell on October 17, before the flaw was publicly disclosed. The company published details of the observed activity in a security blog post, describing how its sensors captured the exploitation in the wild ahead of wider awareness. Security researchers are weighing what the early detection says about attackers targeting newly discovered PHP flaws quickly.

Why now: AWS published new threat intelligence showing in-the-wild exploitation of a PHP vulnerability before it was publicly known, which matters to anyone running PHP infrastructure.
